What Goes Wrong

Where institutional court projects fail, and how to avoid it

Drainage Ignored

A court built without a calibrated surface slope will puddle after every storm and crack within a few seasons.

Slope Designed to Site

Drainage slope is set to actual ground conditions during the site evaluation, before base work is scoped.

Patch Over Bad Base

Resurfacing a court with a failing base only delays the same cracks and uneven spots by one or two seasons.

Base Condition First

The builder inspects the base layer before any scope is written, so resurfacing is only recommended when the base is sound.

Layout Planned Too Late

Committing to a court count or sport configuration before site measurements are taken leads to setback conflicts and wasted space.

Measure, Then Plan

Court counts and multi-sport layouts are confirmed after on-site measurement, not from a standard template.

UV & Fade Ignored

A standard paint finish on a South Florida court fades and degrades within two seasons under direct sun and salt air.

UV-Stable Acrylic Coat

UV-stable acrylic color coat is applied after the base cures, with the recoat interval matched to on-site temperature and humidity.

Scope of Work

What the project covers, from site prep to final striping

Each phase is listed as a separate line item in the written estimate so there are no surprises at invoice.

New Court Construction

Full build from site grading through acrylic surfacing, regulation striping, and hardware installation on HOA, school, or commercial sites.

Court Resurfacing

Acrylic recoat and fresh line marking for courts where the base is confirmed sound, assessed on site before any scope is issued.

Multi-Sport Layout Conversion

Existing tennis or underused green space converted to a pickleball, basketball, or combined multi-sport layout to serve more users.

Drainage & Base Repair

Surface slope correction, sub-base compaction, and crack repair for courts with standing water or uneven playing areas.

Asphalt & Concrete Base

Sub-base compaction and base layer installation.

Acrylic Color Coat

UV-stable finish applied after full base cure.

Regulation Striping

Line marking for agreed sport configurations.

Perimeter Fencing

Court fencing sized and set to the site.

Posts & Backboards

Basketball and pickleball hardware installed.

Drainage System

Slope and drainage path matched to site grade.

Institutional Court Projects

Courts built for heavy shared use, not occasional backyard play

Multi-user facilities need drainage, surface durability, and layout flexibility planned together from the first site visit.

The project starts with an on-site evaluation of the property’s grade, drainage path, and available footprint. Palm Beach County HOA communities frequently convert underused green space or existing tennis courts into multi-sport layouts. Layout options and court counts are confirmed after the site measurement, not before.

Base preparation covers asphalt or concrete installation, sub-base compaction, and a drainage slope calibrated for South Florida’s afternoon storm loads. UV-stable acrylic coating is applied after the base cures, with a cure and recoat interval matched to ambient temperature and humidity conditions on site.

Striping covers regulation line marking for the agreed sports configuration. Hardware installation includes basketball backboards and posts, pickleball net posts, and perimeter fencing. Where an existing court is being assessed, the builder evaluates base condition first to determine whether resurfacing or full replacement is the appropriate scope.

Why Choose Us

Why Palm Beach County Sports Courts for institutional court projects?

Accountability and process matter as much as materials when a court serves dozens of users every day.

Evaluation Before Scope

No written scope is issued until drainage and surface slope are assessed in person on your site.

Itemised Estimates

Every phase, base, surfacing, fencing, striping, appears as a separate line item so costs are clear upfront.

Base-First Resurfacing Decision

Resurfacing is only recommended after the base is inspected; replacement is scoped when the base cannot support a new coat.

Final Walkthrough Sign-Off

The job is not signed off until a walkthrough confirms the surface, drainage, striping, and hardware meet the agreed scope.

HOA & School Site Experience

Our partners work regularly on Palm Beach County HOA communities and South Florida school campuses with shared-use requirements.

Full-Scope Partner Network

We connect institutional buyers with vetted local partners who handle every phase, prep through hardware, under one coordinated plan.

Common Questions

Questions HOA boards & school administrators ask before starting

What does a commercial HOA or school court project usually include?

Every project starts with an on-site evaluation of the space and drainage, followed by an itemised written estimate. That estimate covers base preparation, surfacing, fencing, lighting, and line marking. The job closes with a final walkthrough before sign-off.

Can a damaged old court be resurfaced instead of replaced?

Yes, resurfacing is an option when the existing base is structurally sound with no major heaving, deep cracking, or drainage failure. If the sub-base has shifted or water pools after rain, a full replacement gives a longer-lasting result. An on-site evaluation determines which path makes sense.

How do I know if my court has a drainage problem?

Standing water that remains 30 minutes or more after rain stops is the clearest sign. Other indicators include algae or moss growth in low spots, surface bubbling, and cracking that follows a consistent pattern across the court. An on-site drainage evaluation confirms the cause and scope.

How long will the court project take?

Timeline depends on court size, whether demolition is needed, and how much base work the site requires. A straightforward resurfacing can finish in a few days; a full new-build with site prep typically runs one to three weeks. The written estimate includes a projected schedule for your specific project.

What hidden costs can come up with demolition or site prep?

Unexpected costs most often come from poor sub-base conditions found after demolition, utility conflicts, or drainage corrections that were not visible before work started. The on-site evaluation is designed to surface these issues early so the itemised estimate reflects actual site conditions rather than best-case assumptions.

What affects the cost of a commercial HOA or school court project?

Court size, number of sports, base condition, fencing height, lighting, and drainage complexity all move the final number. Demolition of an existing surface adds cost. Most commercial projects in Palm Beach County come in at $25,000-$120,000, with the itemised estimate breaking out each line item.

Should I repair the court or replace it?

Repair makes sense when cracking is surface-level and the base drains correctly. Replacement is the better call when the sub-base has shifted, drainage has failed, or repair costs approach 50 percent or more of a new-build price. An on-site evaluation gives you a clear comparison before you commit to either path.

Will the new surface crack again?

Cracking is almost always a base problem, not a surface problem. A correctly graded and compacted sub-base with proper drainage eliminates the movement that causes cracking. Applying a new surface coat over a failing base will crack again; addressing the base first is what prevents it.
